Novell SecretStore Developer Kit for Java service provides the ability for applications to gain single sign-On access based on the user's authenticated NDS connection. As a result, the user gains automatic access to the enabled applications once those applications are launched, rather than having to type additional passwords or present other credentials.
The Novell SecretStore Development Kit for Java (JSSO) library provides Java classes that enable network applications to securely access user authentication information. The JSSO library comprises one .jar file (jsso.jar) that is logically split into two sections: the API and two implementations (NCP and JNDI). Additional implementations may be added in the future.
The Novell Developer Kit provides the following JSSO components: software, documentation, and sample code. These components may be downloaded together or separately at Novell SecretStore Developer Kit for Java.
To install the NSSOJ components, follow these steps:
Click on the InstallShield Wizard button for the desired component (software, documentation, sample code, or all).
Choose "Install now," "Install now and save setup files," or "Download only" then click "Next." If you chose "Install now and save setup files" or "Download only," you will be prompted for the location to store the downloaded files.
If you chose "Install now" or "Install now and save setup files," the component installation will then begin automatically. If you chose "Download only," then you must execute the file setup.exe, found in the directory you specified in the previous step.
Complete the NDK installation wizard. At one point you must select the destination where you want to install the NSSOJ components (the default is C:\Novell).
The documentation for the Novell SecretStore Developer Kit for Java is installed to [install location]\ndk\doc\nssoj\ssoj_enu.
After you have installed the documentation, you can view it by clicking the "Novell SecretStore Developer Kit for Java" entry under the "NDK Documents" item on your Start menu.
The installation depends on which implementation of JSSO is used. The installation entails the core installation in addition to the installation for the implementation.
For the September 2002 NDK release, the resulting install directory structure was changed slightly. If you previously installed this component, you will need to update your CLASSPATH.
The new directory structure will be similar to c:\novell\ndk\nssoj.
In order to setup a SSL connection with eDirectory (the LDAP server where SecretStore resides) it is required to place the Trusted Root Certificate of the server in the trust store that can be used by the JSSE when it seeks to establish this connection.
The server's Trusted Root Certificate may be exported by using ConsoleOne, an administration tool that Novell provides. The certificate may be imported into the trust store by using keytool, a program provided by Sun Microsystems that is shipped with the JDK. See Sun Microsystems' documentation on how to create a trust store and how to import a Trusted Root Certificate.
See the documentation on the Novell Web site for information on how to export a Trusted Root Certificate.
